A Course in Miracles (ACIM) Podcast

2nd. Session - Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister at Awaken to Love Center, Torrox, SpainThe 2nd Retreat session features two movie episodes focusing on the authority problem.The first episode features a gentleman with a virtual reality program, where the cosmos of time and space are projected to play out everything we believe in our consciousness. The goal is to empty the mind of false ego beliefs and forgive ourselves for attempting to generate intelligent characters in an artificial intelligence virtual reality.The ego uses the power of the mind to play a game of high and low, seeking idols that satisfy us. However, these idols fail, and the mind cannot achieve satisfaction. In some dreams, the ego chooses inferior positions; in others, the mind becomes powerful and fantasizes about superiority and control.One must believe in differences and the projected world to make one different from God. Jesus taught that we are all one in heaven and on earth, and the way to approach light is through perfect equality. People like a sense of perfect equality where it's humbleness. There's no one higher. There's no one lower. There's no one more powerful. There was no one less powerful. It's perfect equality.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://www.the-christ.net/eventsRecorded, Evening October 25, Torrox, Spain.

1st Session - Opening Session,  "Do Not See Error" with David Hoffmeister at Awaken to Love Center, Torrox, Spain In this talk David discusses the importance of understanding forgiveness and the role of the Holy Spirit in guiding us through life. He emphasizes that everything we perceive as linear time is a false perception invented by the ego, and God is eternal. The Holy Spirit, also known as the Holy Ghost, is an immortal being capable of seeing errors but always looking to the light of truth. This makes the Holy Spirit the answer in any situation.David also discusses the Ten Commandments, emphasizing the importance of loving the Lord like God with all one's heart, soul, and light. Jesus emphasized the first two commandments, and it is more helpful to focus on them. Focusing on the second commandment, "Love thy neighbor as thyself," allows for a unified awareness where all symbols are seen as the same.Forgiveness is about not seeing errors or being unaware. It does not involve recognizing harm or wrongdoing, as it is already bought by the ego's bait. There is no need for forgiveness in heaven, as all is one, and forgiveness is unknown in heaven. However, forgiveness is essential for overcoming the ego's trap and finding true peace in pure love, oneness, and pure God.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://www.the-christ.net/eventsRecorded, Morning October 25, Torrox, Spain.

David Hoffmeister in Spain - 4th. Session - Movie Workshop - Weekend Retreat, Malaga - Oct. 20, 2024David uses a Star Trek movie at the last session at the Malaga retreat to talk about The Holy Spirit and that it is the highest interpretation of the world, allowing for complete non-judgment. It teaches us the contrast of variable perception, where no two people see the same world. This makes relationships difficult, as they are not seeing the same world as a projection of personal beliefs and preferences. The Holy Spirit allows us to come to peace of mind by raising our consciousness to the highest perspective possible. This is what Jesus experienced on the cross.In human existence, we don't really have a comparison of truth and illusion. We're just dealing with a bunch of images that seem to have reality, but there's no contrast of anything else. It would be like a child asking their parent, "Tell me what eternity is like." The parent's like, "Uh-oh." "I don't have a remembrance, I don't have any experience to tell my child about that." English with Spanish translation.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://www.the-christ.net/eventsRecorded, October 20, Malaga, Spain.

David Hoffmeister in Spain - 3rd. Session - Sunday Morning  - Weekend Retreat, Malaga - Oct. 20, 2024In this Sunday morning session at the Malaga Weekend Retreat David talked among other things about that Abraham Maslow developed a hierarchy of needs, focusing on self-actualization as the top goal. This concept is based on the Greek belief that "Know thyself" is the ultimate goal of human development. The ego attempts to deny this through hypnotism, mesmerism, and imagination, covering the truth with unreal images. Atonement, the correction, is the awareness that the separation never happened. Jesus' teachings on forgiveness are not about forgiving people for their actions. It's about forgiving your mind's belief for what you believe they did. The belief in linear time is at the bottom of all beliefs, as it is the great riddle of the ego. The belief in the body, another illusion, is a system of balances and counterbalances that are not real. To understand this, one must first test their emotions, such as happiness or upset. How do I feel? That's a very important test. Am I happy, supremely happy, or am I upset? The degree or the direction of the upset does not matter. Am I irritated, annoyed, or am I enraged? Do I feel just a little bad, or do I feel extremely guilty and shameful? Jesus is saying, "Upset is just upset." And He's going to have to teach us that upset is an illusion. If God is love, if Christ is love, if heaven is love, where does upset fit into love? It doesn't fit. It must be that it is some kind of strange illusion. English with Spanish translation.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://www.the-christ.net/eventsRecorded, October 20, Malaga, Spain.

"Hypnotic Illusions: Jesus' Teachings on Perception, Conflict, and Divine Guidance" by David HoffmeisterThe Bible speaks about seeing the world through a darkened glass, like having dark sunglasses on. We perceive a world of darkness, with separate people, places, things, situations, and events. Jesus teaches that the world was made in hatred and is a place where God cannot enter, but we are not fully aware of this. We are beginning to realize that nothing is what it seems—but distorted and fragmented. It's like a psychotic break from reality, as everything has multiple voices and interpretations.No two people see the same world, as only one mind dreams of exile from God but projecting a private world of private thoughts. This movie encourages us to see beyond this world to a lit-up world reflecting truth, oneness, love, and forgiveness.To participate online in a Movie Workshop, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded online, October 5, 2024, at La Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.

"Unmasking Illusions: A Journey Beyond Linear Time and Specialness" - A Movie Commentary by David HoffmeisterDavid's movie commentary dismantles our belief and perception of linear time, private thoughts, and people-pleasing. Private thoughts are defense mechanisms against the Holy Instance, love, light, and simplicity. Jesus teaches that the present moment is the closest approximation of eternity, and all mystics and saints emphasize being present and bringing God's love. However, the linear world of time and space is like a mask pulled over, made out of specialness.Jesus explains that specialness is the ego, and specialness made this world. This goes beyond the concept of special relationships and what many people think about special relationships. Everything that seems to exist independently is specialness.David's movie commentary helps us disassemble our faulty perceptions and show that things we assume, are unreal. Jesus teaches us that God did not make trees, the world, or time. He also explains that nothing real can be threatened, and therein lies the peace of God.The day's lesson is that illusions cannot satisfy God's Son. Carol King's song "Only Love is Real" illustrates this point. The movie commentary reminds us that everything else is an illusion, and understanding the truth about the world is crucial for overcoming our faulty perceptions and embracing God's love.To participate online in a Tribe of Christ Movie Workshop with David Hoffmeister, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christIf you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded online, September 28, 2024, at La Casa Quantico, Chapala, Mexico.

Let all things be exactly as they are, a forgiven world, a happy dream, a Joy of remembering God.
